the live action movie was written by Makoto Ueda, who went on to write the anime adaptations of Tatami Galaxy and the Night is Short, Walk On Girl. Then, Tomihiko Morimi, the author of those novels, cowrote the novel with Ueda that was the basis of this new series.
Ueda also wrote Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes!
Ah that’s cool. I haven’t seen it yet but I read the premise and this reminded me a lot of that. Time travel stories are kind of all the same to me but I like the way this one kind of dips into time loop paradox stuff without anyone getting too stressed about it. I will have to check that out
ChainsawMan is finally reaching the point where it starts exploding. I only read the comic when it was on a weekly release schedule and haven’t revisited it in a more focused reading yet but the anime has been a fun time where I go “I completely forgot about this part” and it gets such lavish attention.
But yeah, this weeks episode was where I swore the manga got the pink slip and was starting its mad dash to a conclusion only it kept going and went for a good bit.
you may enjoy this
WHAT. I had no idea this guy wrote that movie AND Night is Short Walk on Girl. That’s blowing my mind right now. Both are fantastic! Beyond is slight but in a very intentional and lovable way. I really enjoyed it.
feeling international comradery at seeing both japanese and english gundam witch fans have the same spread of reactions from “this is stupid” to “this rules” at [suletta wasureta] being english localized as [suletta forgetta]
that was so good. the spanish version is beyond wild though, it’s like “suletta wants pork chops”
i thought the same but apparently “chuleta” has a second meaning of like “cheat sheet” so go figure

today’s episode also had fem-kamille bidan, 10/10
i mentioned this to my partner, and they said it can mean someone who is smug/a show off, but that is a very colloquial use.
Watched that spectacular spiderman cartoon the other day which was alright
im watching another kids show that ive literally never seen anyone talk about or anything promoting it or even any reference to it in anything other than my netflix recommendations algorithm, it is called Dogs in Space and it is… weirdly good? like not actually good, but there are things about it that seem more interesting than you might expect a kids cartoon show called dogs in space to be at first glance. also has a weirdly good voice cast with famous people not going out of their way to remind you that they have famous people voices. where do these things come from???
Am unreasonably hype for the appearance of what looks to be Valerie the Librarian
the characters in this are mostly the usual post adventure time mumblethings but what a fantastic looking world
wow that’s pretty amazing i thought they’d just keep those two forever for no reason.
surprised to hear the american theme song in that announcement. i wonder if they’ve used that on the japanese anime before
